Cairo is the largest city in Africa and the Middle East and one of the largest and oldest in Human history. Its richness defies imagination from ancient Pyramids to ultra modern Hotels and residences complex. Its culture is one of the most cosmopolitan in history amalgamating elements from ancient Egyptian era to the time of American super-power and post 2011 revolution.

Traffic

Traffic jams are common in Cairo during rush and off-peak hours. Yet there is usually more than one option to get from one place to another through various bridges and tunnels around the city. These two websites provide unofficial information on traffic by relying on live input from drivers on the road (or their passengers). They also offer applications for BlackBerries and iPhones. Please note that updates from these websites are provided by a community of online users and can potentially be unreliable.

There doesn't seem to be any special facilities available to the public and non-professional teams. Recreational cycling is not common in Cairo apart from occasional long-distance travel cyclists, racers, and grocers' delivery bicycles. Mountain biking is catching up, specially in the Wadi Degla area.
